Does Tenacity apply the same way Cycle of Life does?

jrgray93 · January 2016

Just curious if anyone knows if Tenacity under the Lover constellation adds and percentage of max magicka, or if it adds a percentage to the base 10% restored

Say a heavy weapon attack restores 10% magicka. The passive restoration staff ability, Cycle of Life, restores an additional 30%. This does not bring it to 40%. It makes it 13% restored, because the percentage applies to the restored value.

Eliminating Cycle of Life from the equation for the sake of simplicity, if Tenacity is raised to 10%, does that mean I get 11% restored? Or does it mean I get 20%?

I suppose I could test this later, but I'd rather get an answer than spend the 3k gold and an additional 3k gold if I don't like it.

Did you test it, yet? :-)

I didn't know heavy attacks restore a percentage of your max magicka...

I tried it out on the PTS and heavy attacks with a staff restores 1876 magicka and this did not change when I altered my max magicka or spell damage. Cycle of Life and Tenacity stack multiplicatively. So if you had 100 points in Tenacity and 2 points in Cycle of Life, you'll restore1876*1.3*1.16=2829. Actual in game restoration is 2828.
